The mage arrives

Facing a potentially terrifying enemy, Gordon went all out and tried every means possible.

The magic scrolls were reduced to ashes amidst the chants, and he quickly blessed himself with as many protective spells as possible, and used the eyes of truth and warning to search for the enemy in the thicker darkness in front of him.

Long-term fighting experience in "The Ancient Era" gave Gordon the instinct to search for danger and respond to attacks almost like conditioned reflexes.The shields stacked on his body are colorful, more and more brighter, and the whole person is like the only torch in the darkness.

His transformed amber eyes suddenly caught movement overhead.

On the ceiling that was smashed by demonized warriors just now, and now covered by a strange black, a little sharpness suddenly appeared.

A long sword that looked like a poisonous bee's tail needle pierced Gordon from top to bottom.The controller of this strange weapon is a cloud of mist separated from the thick shadow.

In mid-air, the cloud of mist gradually condensed and turned into a human form.

In a blink of an eye, Gordon saw the face of the other party, which seemed to be covered with a layer of black veil, with unclear features.

At the same time, four more attackers appeared in the study that had been completely engulfed by shadows.They hold cruel and vicious weapons that make people shudder, and the whole person seems to be condensed from the purest darkness.

If it weren't for the various magical auras on his body that barely blocked the darkness, Gordon might have been teleported close to him by these mysterious assassins.

Despite being protected by many spells, the black-haired young mage still felt that the cold, weird, and distorted power of the Shadow Realm was slowly penetrating into his skin and then into his bone marrow.It's like there are thousands of ugly bone claws groping around.

Compared with the physical discomfort, Gordon's life crisis at this time was even more serious.

The assassin attacking from above was clearly the strongest and smartest.Most protection spells.Often the focus is on the front, the sides and the back are secondary protection, and the top of the head is always neglected.In addition, it will always take more time for a human head to look up and observe the position directly above than simply looking left and right.

This little difference often plays a key role in assassination operations that need to be accurate to one hundredth of a second.

The shadow assassin attacking above his head was extremely powerful, definitely beyond the capabilities of a four-ring mage—even if the four-ring mage was an exception like Gordon.Not to mention, the opponent has four helpers.

However, Gordon only made one move.It completely turned the tide of the battle.

He raised his arm.

A white light shot out from the back of Gordon's hand, filling the entire study room in an instant.It was like a day and night alternation going on at a thousand times the speed, the darkness receded like a tide, the center was soft, the platinum light that warmed the soul and body.It illuminated the dilapidated study room brightly and cleanly after a battle.

Even as an enemy.At this time, Asalan felt like bowing to the power of the Platinum Dragon God.The urge to burst into tears.

He suppressed this crazy thought, and at the same time realized a key problem: "Gordon was able to release such a pure and thick light full of the dragon god's breath, so this time, our side has completely miscalculated. Failure is inevitable." Avoid. Malik Baratheon, who has embraced the power of the shadows, is indeed very powerful, but in the face of the real light, he and his fearsome "shadow hand" troops have almost no chance of winning.

Asalan's judgment was correct.

After Gordon used the Platinum Seal to cast a mighty holy light, Malik, who was about to pierce Gordon's head with a sword from above his head, was immediately severely injured.

The black shadow screamed in pain.Then immediately backed away, wanting to be farther away from that terrifying light source.When Malik finally stood about five meters away from Gordon and took human form, Asalan could hardly recognize the number two member of the Baratheon family.

The skin on Malik's face and hands was covered with scalded blisters, and green smoke full of burnt smell was emitting from his body.Calmness and elegance, calmness and composure have long since disappeared from this elegant middle-aged nobleman.It was replaced by embarrassment, anger, anxiety, and a little overwhelmed.

Like Asalan, Malik was caught off guard by Gordon's surprise tactics.Originally, he thought that after Gordon used that powerful one-time magic item to wipe out the Jade Blade Mercenary Group, there would be no more trump cards.Who knows, there is still such a hand.

People who embrace the power of shadow will gain many benefits, but they will also lose a lot.They will become like undead creatures, very afraid of the arcane energy of the shining attribute.

Malik Baratheon is indeed a strong man who came from a noble family and worked hard with his own hands.Although he was caught off guard, although his whole body was in pain like a fire, even though he looked as ugly as a monster now, he immediately judged the battle situation based on his own experience and wisdom.

He hasn't lost yet and still has hope of winning.

Although the four "shadow hands" are far from his strength, they have been wiped out in the attack of the holy light just now, although he has suffered serious injuries, although he dare not use it in this bright study room full of platinum light. The power of the shadow, but with himself and Asalan, it is still enough to defeat Gordon.

"Asalan, cover me!" Malik roared angrily, raising his sword horizontally with blistered hands, and rushed towards Gordon again.

Asalan also cheered up, and a dissociation light that he was best at began to gather at his fingertips.

However, Gordon gave the enemy a big surprise for the third time tonight.

He quickly took out a strange crystal with constantly changing colors from the dimensional bag, and then injected pure arcane energy into it.

The beautiful cone-shaped crystals shattered.

At this time, the fast Malik had already broken through the defense of the mage armor in front of Gordon with the long sword, and the tip of the sword was almost about to pierce Gordon's body blessed by the dragon skin technique.

These middle and low-level defensive spells can reduce but not completely counteract Malik's attack.This kind of protective ability is completely insignificant to Malik Baratheon, who has personally trained such a terrifying troop as the "Shadow Hand" and is also a master swordsman.

It's just death one second earlier or one second later.

But one second is enough for the colorful crystal to release all the spells stored in it.

Two portals suddenly appeared on Malik's left and right.

The sword named Breaking Dawn was the first to stab out from the portal. The blade cut through the air, dragging a silver light like a gorgeous tassel, and blocked Malik's long sword.

Malik felt great power from the sword and had to withdraw his attack.On the other side of the portal, there was also a muffled hum.

This time, Malik, who was attacked unexpectedly, won the sword fight.

However, this small victory could not change the situation of the battle at all. Behind the portal on the other side, there was a bigger momentum.A flail that could easily smash the skull smashed over. This heavy weapon was even blessed with various divine arts, and its power was doubled.

Malik dodged the blow again on the shoulder, but was still slightly grazed by the flail.He felt his entire shoulder go numb with pain.

Jude, the priest of the Dawn Temple who had met Gordon several times, rushed out from the portal on the left, wearing heavy armor and holding a flail.And from the portal on the right, a heroic and beautiful lady came out—the paladin Renas Reinhardt, who had established a fighting friendship with Gordon in the Sun Elf Castle.

Both of them are good fighters in the Temple of Dawn in Clearwater City, and they are also Gordon's heavyweight reinforcements tonight.

Although fighting alone, neither Renas nor Jude is Malik's opponent.However, the two joined forces to deal with the severely injured Malik, and they immediately gained the upper hand.

The big man of the Baratheon family, the strong man who mastered the mysteries of the shadows, was now forced to retreat by the battle priests and paladins, in a panic.

The repeated blows made him lose his will to fight, and he was ready to seize the opportunity to escape.

As for Asalan, before the dissociation technique he prepared just now was cast, the situation of the battle changed drastically.He had to cancel the spell, endured the pain caused by mana backlash, and prepared to cast the spell to escape.

Although it was painful, the Master of Six Rings admitted that he had completely failed.He had no choice but to abandon all the prestige and wealth he had accumulated in the Far Frost Province. From then on, he concealed his identity, escaped from Freyton, and hibernated in a foreign country.

Well, Northengard, which is hostile to Freyton, would be a good choice...

But these two guys who were already preparing to escape immediately fell into despair when they saw the second group of people coming out of the portal.

Cardinal Rudo Antonov III of the Temple of Dawn, and Cardinal Sandro of the Platinum Temple.

"Damn it! What's going on here!" Malik, who was busy dealing with the joint attack of Jude and Lenas, was almost going crazy.

Rob Antello and Gordon have a close relationship, almost like mentor and apprentice.But the lord of the scepter is unlikely to fight tonight, so Malik believes that he will not encounter a strong person who can threaten him in the battle.

But now, his experience, his logic, his wisdom, and his reasoning all don't work!

Why is it that a small four-ring mage can invite the cardinals of the two temples to join the battle?

Malik's mind was confused at this time, and he was relying only on instinct to resist the attacks of the battle priest and paladin.But the two cardinals had no intention of showing mercy. They raised their hands almost at the same time, and the holy emblems in their hands shone with chanting.

Law!

holy word!

The two seven-ring spells accurately penetrated into Malik's chest.Even a strong man like Malik cannot be exempted from the divine spell cast by the cardinal.

He couldn't move.

The battle-hardened Jude and Lenas would not miss this opportunity.The battle priest's flail hit Malik's face, and a bloody flower burst out.But the female holy warrior was more thorough, she pierced her love sword Daybreak into Malik's chest without hesitation. (to be continued..)
